around was created in hopes that it would remind me to be aware of the beautiful, simple and amazing things all around me each day. In this crazy life, it is so easy to go through a day, a month, or more…. and rush from one thing to the next without taking the time to stop and give thanks for these simple gifts. I am not very good with words, but have found that often a picture captures the things around me perfectly. So, there won’t be many words here, but I hope to regularly share with photographs. They will be things that I love, things that surprise me, things I want to remember to be thankful for and things that take my breath away.

I live near Seattle, Washington with my husband Adam and our dog, Bentley and cat, Pach. I love trying new recipes, being outside, quilting and looking for the simple gifts around me every day.
